Home Sharing not working on both computers

I want to import music from my laptop (Windows 7) to my main desktop (Windows Vista). My laptop regonizes the library on the desktop through Home Sharing but the desktop does not see the laptop. I have Home Sharing turned on on both PCs using the same iTunes account and I tried turning it on and off on both but it still doesn't work on my desktop. Both have the most recent version of iTunes. What am I doing wrong?

I unchecked the local network box in preferences, sharing and checked update play counts on my laptop and now my desktop sees my laptop's library. I didn't change anything on my desktop so I don't know why this worked but thanks for helping me fix it.
